Distal Radius Fracture with Dorsal Angulation.

Distal radial fractures (DRFs) are prevalent injuries and represent one of the most common fractures seen in the Emergency Department (ED). DRFs often result from falls on an outstretched hand (FOOSH). This case study details a 64-year-old female who sustained a distal radial fracture with dorsal angulations (DRFDA) from ice skating, confirmed via radiographic evaluation. Initial treatment involved immobilization, pain management, and follow-up with orthopedic specialists. Proper diagnosis and management are essential to prevent long-term functional impairments, with treatment ranging from casting to surgical intervention based on fracture severity.
